what was it that left our boatstranded?Maybethe roles cast was wherewe went all,you see;me,i wanted to play“the jazz singer”not the admiringback up girl,i wanted center stagenot back stagebut we were bothcompeting forthe leading male part and maybei did not have it in my heartto play the girlin the back,and maybei ended up playingthe partout of a lackof ambitionor imaginationthat i could playthe guy,have the baby,and be the oldjewish man all at the same time.Maybe i am justa one man showand i just looklike i am not.Maybe insteadof being a parenti just wanted to transcend genderwhich is where yogacame in,to erase all the roleswe play,the price we payfor fake.But that wasyesrerdayand todayi place the soulon center stageand one daywe will achieve eternal lifebut maybe next time,youwill end up a rock,and isomewhere above.
